Reading by Caroline Despont, accompanied by Loussona Ground<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

\n

Caroline Despont, poetess of intimacy and movement, explores landscapes<\/p>\n

with a sensual, sober, vibrant language. She writes as one <\/p>\n

walks on a ridge: on the edge of the visible and the invisible, between flesh and silence.<\/p>\n

Her words are born of listening to the world, to the elements, to beings.<\/p>\n

Through readings, performances and encounters with music and voice, she<\/p>\n

offers words that invite us to feel, to connect, to open up, to understand.<\/p>\n

Based in French-speaking Switzerland, her texts have been published in several collections<\/p>\n

and magazines in Europe and Africa.<\/p>\n

Her latest collection La Femme qui attendait la pluie (Tarmac \u00c9ditions, France) has<\/p>\n

received the FETKANN Literary Prize! Maryse Cond\u00e9 2025 – Poetry. <\/p>\n

The text Errances inspires the harp and electronic duo AVELUNE in their album<\/p>\n

Errer, a voluptuous, nuanced sonic journey (2024, Claves Records, CH).<\/p>\n

She collaborates with Loussona Ground, sound designer & out of genre musician, who<\/p>\n

dresses his words in dreamy notes, creating a unique universe in the image of<\/p>\n

their respective approaches, on the edge of the visible and the invisible.<\/p>\n

Their laboratory found its first setting in February 2025 at the Public Readings.<\/p>\n

La Galerie in Geneva, with a reading of previously unpublished extracts from La Femme qui attendait<\/p>\n

the rain.<\/p>\n

Loussona Ground <\/b>explores the introspective world through hypnotic textures and layers of sound, creating a dreamlike abundance. <\/span><\/p>\n

Her performances combine tape, ribbon and semi-modular synthesizers. She combines electronics with music boxes, for which she writes conceptual scores. <\/span><\/p>\n

Her musical journey began in 1975 with the classical violin, which she quickly brought to life with the discovery of microcontact and effect filters. From her classical days, Loussona Ground has retained an immoderate love of JS Bach, which she takes to new heights in her current sets. <\/span><\/p>\n

His music is compared with the Ambient and Experimental movements of the 70′-80′. <\/span><\/p>\n

Loussona Ground has recently given several concerts at Festivals and also likes to do happenings in unexpected places with a minimalist set. <\/span><\/p>\n

She has collaborated with Swiss artists such as Consor, Sam Frank Blunier and Claudia Renna, and with the Collectif I+, of which she was the violinist. <\/span><\/p>\n

Among her many projects, she is currently working with Caroline Despont, adding a particular sound dimension to the poet’s words, an invitation to a unique sensory journey, on the edge of the visible and the invisible, in the image of their respective artistic approaches. Their laboratory found its first setting in February 2025 with a reading of previously unpublished extracts from the collection “La Femme qui attendait la pluie” at the Lectures Publiques de La Galerie in Geneva. <\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
